NPP is financing Ofosu Ampofo’s campaign to retain seat – Ahmed Ibrahim alleges
The Deputy Minority Whip has alleged that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) is the force behind Samuel Ofosu Ampofo’s bid to retain his seat as the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
According to Mr Ahmed Ibrahim, the NPP is campaigning for Mr Ofosu Ampofo to retain his seat to do the bidding of the NPP.
This, he explained, is because of their fear of what the party led by Johnson Asiedu Nketia, popularly known as General Mosquito, will do in 2024.
“As I speak to you if the NPP together with Ofosu Ampofo are fighting Asiedu Nketia, then it tells you that Asiedu Nketia is fighting Ofosu Ampofo and NPP at the same time. It tells you that he has something under his sleeves and clearly it presupposes that Ofosu Ampofo is going to do the bidding for NPP and that is why the NPP are campaigning for him. Why is it so? They want a weaker leader so that they can break their eight,” he claimed.
Being a delegates election, there’s a massive scramble for the 137 NDC MPs who are major stakeholders in Saturday’s election.
Ahmed Ibrahim is claiming that the Minority Caucus in Parliament is overwhelmingly behind Johnson Asiedu and that only nine MPs are supporting the incumbent chairman.
He explained that an Ofosu Ampofo-led NDC will be disastrous to the party’s chances to win power in 2024.
